Cl their families will hold
their annual Frolic at Euclid
Beach Park, Cleveland, Mon-day,
July 29, according to an
announcement made this
week by the Employees' Ae-tivities
Committee.
Selection of Euclid Beach
• for the third successive year
was made, said Fred Colley,
because of its many fine at-tractions
for boys and girls as
well as the men and women, be-cause
of its size, and its acces-sibility.
A new short cut to the park
made possible by the completion
of the new bridge beyond Bed-ford
will shorten the time and
distance. This new route will
also eliminate part of the travel
through Cleveland and will lead
more directly to the park.
The two former Goodyear out-ings
at Euclid Beach have been
held in August, and, because of
cooler weather, few employees
felt a desire to avail themselves
of the line bathing facilities. For
that reason the picnic date was
set for mid-summer so that em-ployees
would not be deprived
this year of the fun of water
sports.
Appointment of the various
committees will be made this
week by Fred Colley, general
6 chairman, who will have some an-nouncements
to make which will
interest every employee.
TRAP SHOOTS EACH
SUNDAY DURING JULY
The Hunting and Fishing Club
will hold a trap shoot each Sun-day
during July at the Old Gun
Club grounds on Route 224 just
east of Arlington-st. The next
shoot is scheduled for July 7.
Firing starts at 1 0'clock. The
program includes clay' bird prac-tice
and merchandise events, and
cross target merchandise events.
Prizes will be chickens, sugar and
groceries.
High winds last Sunday made
good scores almost impossible at
the regular trap shoot. Al Sims
was high gun in the all events,
breaking 48x50. The 16 yard
events were won by Al Sims,
24x25; WilIiam McMahan, 19x25;
Bob Adams, 18x25, and C.
MeDaniels, 23x25.
C. S. Ge]vin, C. MeDaniels and
John Lacotta were awarded 75
pounds of merchandise in the
cross target events.
The spawning sanctuaries at
Wingfoot and Springlield lakes
will not be removed until July 15
t as many blue gills and other fish
are still spawning. All 6shermen
are urged to respect these sane-tuaries.
